Commuting year round can be no walk in the park. Let’s face it, here in Britain, we are often confronted with less than favourable weather. It can be so difficult to motivate yourself to grab the bike instead heading for the bus stop, especially when you can hear the rain drumming down outside.

Choosing your kit wisely is imperative when it comes to becoming a hardy winter commuter. And the good news is that once you have the right kit, the weather becomes less and less of a factor, to the point when you become pretty indifferent to the rain! And even better still, you will not have to substitute style in the process!

As the old Scandinavian saying goes “there’s no bad weather, just bad clothing” so starting from your feet, we have compiled a list of the most stylish winter commuting gear on the market.
